The flopping and foul-baiting is one part of the current game I do NOT like. I watched the Knicks in the mid-late 90s a fair bit, but I got tired of the NBA, especially in the regular season, basically being 5 different games of one-on-one.Lebron is arguably one of the most talented players ever. He's an athletic freak. I'm glad he's on the Lakers.
That being said, he's such a drama queen. I get it is part of his game, but I just cringe every time I see him flop around on the floor. I just shook my head when Chris Paul grabbed his arm and he flops around for a few minutes.
Compare his game to Kobe who was a stone cold killer that never showed weakness.
The current era, there is much better ball movement, way more engaged off-ball positioning by players, better shooting.
